[PUBLIC COMMENTS ON AGENDA ITEMS (for Non-Public Hearing Items)]

NEXT ITEM WILL BE THE OPPORTUNITY FOR THE AUDIENCE TO ADDRESS THE CITY COUNCIL ON ANY NON PUBLIC HEARING ITEM THAT IS ON THE AGENDA. SO IF YOU'VE COME TONIGHT AND WOULD LIKE TO ADDRESS THE CITY COUNCIL ON AN AGENDA ITEM THAT DOES NOT HAVE A PUBLIC HEARING, PLEASE COME TO THE PODIUM. FIRST NAME IS BETH BENTLEY. GOOD EVENING. GOOD EVENING, MR. MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL, MR. CITY MANAGER BETH BENTLEY, 316 WARD STREET, MCKINNEY, TEXAS. I'M REPRESENTING SAINT JAMES CME CHURCH TONIGHT AND I'D LIKE TO SPEAK ON THE BETTER TOGETHER INITIATIVE. JUST LOOKING THROUGH THE PROPOSAL, I JUST JOTTED SOME NOTES AND I JUST WANTED TO SHARE JUST A COUPLE OF THINGS. I WANT TO START WITH A QUOTE BY JOHN CHRYSOSTOM AND ONE OF THE CHURCH FATHERS THAT SHARED, IF YOU CANNOT FIND CHRIST IN THE BEGGAR AT THE CHURCH DOOR, YOU WILL NOT FIND HIM IN THE CHALICE. AND SO, AS THE CHURCH, IT'S REALLY A CHALLENGE FOR US TO SEPARATE OUR LOVE FOR GOD, OUR LOVE FOR HUMANITY AND FOR THE POOR, AND OUR LOVE FOR THE LAW OF THE LAND. SO THEY REALLY ALL MESH TOGETHER. AND SO AS YOU'RE CONSIDERING THE THE PROPOSAL, JUST JUST A COUPLE OF THINGS. AND THERE WERE THERE'S A TERTIARY GROUP IN THE THE THREE GROUPS OF THAT WERE A PRIORITY OF HOMELESSNESS IDENTIFIED IN THE CITY'S PRIORITIES. AND SO IF SO, THERE WERE STAKEHOLDERS AND THERE WAS MENTIONED MENTIONED PRETTY HEAVILY THROUGHOUT THE PROPOSAL. BUT PERHAPS THERE'S A SILENT PARTNER GROUP OF CHURCHES AND FAITH BASED ENTITIES THAT QUIETLY PROVIDE PLACES OF REST IN OPEN AIR. SO THOSE THAT THAT COME ALONG, ESPECIALLY ON HIGHWAY FIVE, WHICH IS WHERE WE'RE LOCATED, AND SLEEP OUT IN THE OPEN AIR AT NIGHT. SO BUT THERE'S THERE'S A SILENT GROUP THAT DOES THAT. SO THERE'S NOT ANYBODY NECESSARILY THERE THAT'S WORKING WITH THAT GROUP.

THEY JUST FIND A PLACE OF REST THERE. AND THEN THE HOMEOWNERS WHO HAVE HOMELESS PERSONS AS THEIR NEIGHBORS WHO SET UP CAMP IN, IN THEIR NEIGHBORHOOD, PERHAPS INCLUDE THOSE GROUPS OF PERSONS OR ENTITIES IN THE SESSIONS AND CONSIDER THEM MAYBE A SILENT STAKEHOLDERS WHOSE DATA CAN COME IN THE FORM OF ADDITIONAL DAILY ENCOUNTERS, OR THOSE WHO ARE AWARE OF THOSE WHO SLEEP OUTSIDE ON ON THE GROUNDS, IT'S JUST IT'S A REALITY. IT IS A REALITY. SO JUST I JUST DON'T WANT US TO LOSE SIGHT. WE MAY NOT BE THE LOUDEST VOICE IN THE ROOM, BUT WE DO PROVIDE CARE BY PROVIDING OUR LAND IS JUST THERE. AND SO AND SO ARE OTHERS. WE'VE LEARNED TO SEE AND HEAR THOSE WHO LIVE AMONG US, AND WE'VE LEARNED TO LIVE TOGETHER.

THAT'S. AND SOMETIMES IT'S NOT A MATTER OF TRACKING DATA. IT'S A MATTER OF JUST DOING LIFE TOGETHER. SO I JUST WANTED THAT TO BE SHARED. AND I APPRECIATE YOU HEARING THE COMMENT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MR. BENTLEY. OUR NEXT SPEAKER. IF I MISPRONOUNCE, I APOLOGIZE, I SHOW PIECE HOUSE CLOSE PAUSE AND DID YOUR KIDS CLOSE ENOUGH? THANK YOU CHAIRMAN, THE HOUSE IS FINE. IT DOESN'T REALLY MATTER. CAN YOU GUYS HEAR ME? OKAY, GREAT. MY NAME'S DANIEL

[00:20:06]

HAWES. I WAS BASICALLY I'M HERE ON BEHALF OF TWO DIFFERENT ISSUES. NUMBER ONE, I'D LIKE TO TALK WITH THE CITY ABOUT SETTING UP A STREET PERFORMANCE COUNCIL TO KIND OF TAMP DOWN ON SOME OF THE CHAOS DOWN IN MCKINNEY THAT'S HAPPENING DOWNTOWN. THERE'S JUST A LOT OF COMPLAINTS AND CONFUSION. I KNOW YOU GUYS LIKE FINE ARTS. WE HAD THE JAZZ BAND OUT HERE.

THERE WAS AN INCIDENT WHERE IN A GUY WHO WAS PLAYING CONCERT LEVEL, VIVALDI GOT KICKED OFF.

I DON'T THINK ANYONE ON THIS COUNCIL HAS AN ISSUE WITH VIVALDI IN ANY WAY, SHAPE OR FORM. JUST SOME KIND OF THING TO NEGOTIATE THAT USE OF THE PUBLIC SPACE IN A FAIR WAY, SUCH THAT WE'RE NOT ACTUALLY KICKING THE FINE ARTS OFF OF THE SQUARE. THAT GUY JUST SHOWED UP, AND ALL HE WANTED TO DO WAS PLAY VIVALDI NUMBER TWO. I WOULD LIKE THERE'S A LOT OF PEOPLE WORKING VERY HARD TO SET UP A HOMELESS LIKE, LIKE, YOU KNOW, SOME KIND OF HOMELESS CENTER OR SOMETHING, LIKE, I WANT TO HAVE LIKE A DAY ONE HOMELESS SHELTER FOR LIKE THE DAY ONE, YOU'RE HOMELESS, YOU GO THERE, WE GET YOU WITH ALL OF THE SERVICES, AND WE GET YOU OFF THE STREET RIGHT AWAY IN ORDER TO KIND OF BUILD UP. STANDING FOR THIS, I ON A $70 BUDGET WHILE SLEEPING UNDER A TREE, THROUGH A CHARITY TOY DRIVE, WE HAD OVER $2,500 WORTH OF TOY DONATIONS. THIS IS VERIFIABLE. WE HAD A 13 PIECE JAZZ BAND. WE HAD A POP PUNK BAND. AND LIKE, I BROUGHT ALL OF THAT IN JUST TO SPEAK ON BEHALF AND SHOW LIKE, THERE ARE SOME OF US WHO DO REALLY, REALLY WANT TO WORK BECAUSE FRANKLY SPEAKING, WITH A LOT OF THESE HOMELESS PEOPLE, THEY'RE SORT OF LIKE, LIKE I'M AN INDOOR OUTDOOR CAT. I'M GOING TO GO BACK IN WHEN I'M READY TO GO BACK IN. BUT SOME OF THESE PEOPLE, IT'S DAY ONE. THEY'RE BASICALLY FLUFFY, THE SNOW HAIRED, PERSIAN, LONG HAIRED, PERSIAN OR SOMETHING. THEY'VE NEVER BEEN OFF OF A HEATED PAD IN THEIR ENTIRE LIFE AND THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW, LIKE I'LL FIND THEM CRYING OUTSIDE OF THE COMMUNITY FOOD PANTRY, AND THEY DON'T EVEN KNOW THAT THERE'S A DAY LUNCH RIGHT THERE. OKAY. AND SO I JUST ALL I WANT IS I JUST WANT AN HOUR. I WANT TO BUY LIKE AN HOUR OF YOUR TIME TO TALK WITH YOU GUYS AND GO INTO DETAIL ABOUT WHAT WE COULD MAYBE DO. AND I DON'T WANT TO WASTE YOUR TIME OR ANYTHING. I'VE USED MY OWN MONEY IN ORDER TO PROVE THIS. YOU CAN GO ON INSTAGRAM. CHEF ADAM JOHNSON HAS BEEN MAKING WE'VE BEEN DOING FANCY DINNER PARTIES AND STUFF LIKE THAT AND ALL KINDS OF STUFF TO DEMONSTRATE A SERIES OF PROGRAMS THAT ARE ACTUALLY EVIDENCE BASED. AND I JUST WANT AN HOUR OF YOUR TIME TO TALK TO YOU AND EXPLAIN IT, AND THAT'S IT. AND THAT'S ALL I CAME HERE TO ASK FOR TODAY.

JUST ONE HOUR OF YOUR TIME TO ACTUALLY TALK, OKAY? AND PLEASE DON'T LET MY APPEARANCE AND DEMEANOR, LIKE, FOOL YOU OR, LIKE, MAKE YOU THINK BADLY OF ME. THESE ARE HONEST HANDS I EARNED. I DIDN'T I DIDN'T GET LIKE A FOOD STAMP PHONE. I EARNED UP MY OWN PHONE ALL ON MY OWN WITH MY GUITAR BY BUSKING AND WORKING. OKAY, SO THERE'S PEOPLE WHO WANT TO WORK AND I WANT TO HELP THEM. THAT'S ALL. THANK YOU, THANK YOU. I APPRECIATE YOU BEING HERE. YEAH.

NEXT SPEAKER, STEPHANIE SOUTH. WELCOME. SAME THING. OKAY, WE HAVE ONE MORE KIM BLACK. GOOD EVENING EVERYONE. GUESS WHAT I'M GOING TO TALK ABOUT. WHAT A GUESS. NORTH KENTUCKY PARKING GARAGE. IT'S A BAD IDEA FOR MANY MANY REASONS. ASIDE FROM MORE CARS FLOWING THROUGH DOWNTOWN AND INTO OUR HISTORIC NEIGHBORHOOD, THERE'S A SIGNIFICANT PARKING DEFICIT ON THE SOUTH SIDE THAT REALLY NEEDS YOUR PRIORITY. TEN YEARS AGO, THE DOWNTOWN PARKING COMMITTEE IDENTIFIED THE MUNICIPAL COURT LOT AS THE NUMBER ONE LOCATION FOR THE PARKING GARAGE, ALONG WITH THE RECOMMENDATION THAT NO PARKING GARAGES BE BUILT WEST OF KENTUCKY STREET. THEIR RECOMMENDATIONS ARE STILL VALID AND THEY SHOULD HAVE GREAT WEIGHT, BUT THEY'RE NOW SECONDARY TO THE MOST CONCERNING REASON. I'M SORRY I WASN'T HERE TO HEAR YOU SPEAK EARLIER. I STILL GROWING HOMELESS POPULATION WHO CONGREGATE AT THE LIBRARY. I SAY GROWING BECAUSE THE ORDINANCES BANNING CAMPING THAT WERE PASSED RECENTLY DON'T SEEM TO BE BEING ENFORCED. BY CHOOSING THE HARVEST LOT LOCATION ONE BLOCK AWAY, YOU'RE LITERALLY PROVIDING THEM A PLACE TO LIVE. I'M A 37 YEAR RESIDENT OF DOWNTOWN WHO'S ALREADY HAD DRUG PARAPHERNALIA LEFT ON MY PROPERTY, AND A

[00:25:05]

HOMELESS MAN WHO MADE HIMSELF A BED ON MY PORCH. I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE OF US WHO LIVED DOWNTOWN WHO'VE HAD THIS EXPERIENCE. IN SPEAKING WITH SOME OF YOU ABOUT THIS DECISION RECENTLY, I WAS TOLD THAT AS A COUNCIL, YOUR SIGHTS ARE SET ON FUTURE VISITORS TO DOWNTOWN RATHER THAN THOSE OF US WHO LIVE HERE. NOW, YOU'RE RIGHT. WHEN YOU SAID I'LL BE DEAD SOON ENOUGH, BUT I'M HERE NOW TO SAY THAT I MATTER. MY NEIGHBORS MATTER. THOSE OF US WHO LIVE HERE NOW, AND THOSE OF US WHO WILL MOVE HERE IN THE FUTURE. I HATE IT THAT THE DECISION HAS ALREADY BEEN MADE TO PUT THE PARKING GARAGE ON KENTUCKY STREET. I IMPLORE YOU TO IMPLORE YOU, IMPLORE YOU TO PUT INTO PLACE EVERY TOOL AVAILABLE TO POLICE THE GARAGE AND KEEP IT CLEAN. IT'S SIMPLY IMPERATIVE FOR ALL. OKAY, NOW IT'S TIME TO CLOSE WITH POSITIVITY, BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT I DO. I JUST WANT TO THANK YOU FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO SHARE MY CONCERNS WITH YOU, EVEN WHEN WE DON'T AGREE. YOU KNOW YOU HAVE MY RESPECT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND YOUR COMMITMENT TO OUR MCKINNEY. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MR. BLAKE. OKAY, NEXT CARD IS GINA HAMMACK. MISS SOUTH, YOU'LL BE NEXT. GINA HAMMACK, 25, 12 CANYON DRIVE, MCKINNEY, TEXAS. IT'S KIND OF WEIRD BEING ON THIS SIDE OF THE. BUT IT WAS WEIRD THAT THERE IS A AGENDA ITEM TONIGHT ABOUT THE SHORT TERM RENTALS IN MCKINNEY, AND I WOULD LIKE TO VOICE THAT. YOU KNOW, WE LIVE IN A NEIGHBORHOOD THAT DOESN'T HAVE AN HOA, AND THIS IS A CONCERN. NOT ONLY DOES IT INCREASE THE TRAFFIC, IT INCREASES NOISE, TRASH, THINGS LIKE THAT. BUT I KNOW THERE'S WITHIN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD, THERE'S THREE I THINK THEY'RE ALL 4 OR 5 BEDROOM HOUSES. THEY ADVERTISE BETWEEN 16 AND 20 PEOPLE THAT CAN STAY THERE EACH NIGHT. AND FOR I THINK $500 FOR THE RENTAL, WHICH IS A PRETTY GOOD DEAL FOR THAT MANY, THAT MANY PEOPLE. BUT THAT'S A LOT OF CARS. THAT'S A LOT OF, YOU KNOW, I KNOW THAT THERE'S OFF STREET PARKING RULES AND THINGS LIKE THAT, BUT, YOU KNOW, ARE THEY I'M NOT SURE HOW WELL THEY'RE ENFORCED, BUT, YOU KNOW, JUST WOULD LIKE TO, YOU KNOW, BE VOICE OUR SUPPORT FOR THE FOR THIS PROPOSITION. AND THAT WOULD BE A STRENUOUS AS POSSIBLE. NO THE REGISTRATION IS WHAT'S ON THE AGENDA TONIGHT.

AND I THINK THAT'S, YOU KNOW, A BARE MINIMUM. AND, YOU KNOW, TO HAVE THOSE EMERGENCY CONTACT NUMBERS IF THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH AN OVERNIGHT RENTAL, YOU KNOW, I THINK SOME OF THE NEIGHBORING CITIES HAVE GONE SO FAR AS TO PLACE RESTRICTIONS ON THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE THAT CAN STAY, MAYBE A FEW OTHER THINGS. SO, YOU KNOW, A STRENUOUS AS POSSIBLE. BUT THE VERY MINIMUM WOULD BE THE THE REGISTRATION. SO THANK YOU GUYS. THANK YOU, MISS HAMRICK. NEXT CARD IS STEPHANIE SOUTH. GOOD EVENING. MY NAME IS STEPHANIE SOUTH, 3108 SAINT GERMAIN DRIVE IN MCKINNEY. I LIVE DOWN THE STREET FROM GINA AND HER LOVELY FAMILY. MY HUSBAND HAD OUR HOME BUILT WHEN THAT NEIGHBORHOOD WAS CREATED IN THE EARLY 1990S. SO WE'VE SEEN THE NEIGHBORHOOD GROW, WE'VE SEEN IT THRIVE, AND WE SEE PEOPLE COVET TO GET INSIDE EL DORADO ESTATES, WHICH DOESN'T HAVE A HOMEOWNER'S ASSOCIATION, AND THEY WANT TO GO TO VALLEY CREEK ELEMENTARY AND WALK THEIR CHILDREN UNDERNEATH EL DORADO AND ENJOY THE CHARM OF EL DORADO. AND I WANT TO MAINTAIN THAT FOR MY CHILDREN AND MY GRANDCHILDREN. I WALK EVERY DAY. I FIGURED THIS OUT A FEW MONTHS AGO, THAT PEOPLE WERE RENTING THEIR HOUSES OUT BY 10 TO 20 CARS PARKED AROUND THE FRONT OF THEIR HOUSE TO TRASH FALLING OUT OF THEIR GARBAGE CANS IN 800 $900,000 HOMES. I DON'T WANT THOSE. AS MY NEIGHBOR, I'M GRATEFUL THAT MY NEIGHBORS HAVEN'T CHOSEN TO TURN THEIR HOME INTO A SHORT TERM RENTAL. I SUPPORT THIS FULLY. I WANT MY NEIGHBORHOOD TO STAY A COVETED NEIGHBORHOOD. I WANT MY GRANDCHILDREN TO FEEL SAFE THERE, AND IT'S VERY UNNERVING TO FIND THIS IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD RIGHT NOW. SO WE SUPPORT YOU. WE WANT TO MAKE IT AS STRINGENT AS POSSIBLE. I WOULD LIKE TO DISSUADE THIS ACTIVITY FROM OCCURRING. I HOPE YOU CAN UNDERSTAND OUR VIEWPOINT. THANK YOU. THANK YOU, MISS SOUTH. ANYONE ELSE WISH TO SPEAK TONIGHT ON AGENDA ITEM WITH NO PUBLIC HEARING? ANYONE

[CONSENT AGENDA]

ELSE? VERY GOOD. WE WILL MOVE ON. WE'LL MOVE TO OUR CONSENT AGENDA. DO WE HAVE ANY? I KNOW WE HAVE A FEW PULL DOWNS. LET ME RUN THROUGH THOSE AND THEN I'M GOING TO ADD TO A PULL DOWN,

[00:30:01]

MR. MAYOR. OKAY. I'M GOING TO WANT TO PULL DOWN THE BOTTOM OF PAGE 4260174. I HAVE A COUPLE REMARKS. OKAY. ANYONE ELSE? AT I'M GOING TO PULL 260166260169 AND 260173, AND COUNCILMAN CLAUDIA, YOU'RE PULLING 260174. YES, SIR. OKAY. ANY QUESTIONS ON THE BALANCE OF THE CONSENT AGENDA, I'LL MOVE THAT. WE APPROVE THE BALANCE OF THE CONSENT AGENDA. WE HAVE A MOTION BY COUNCILMAN CLAUDIA TO APPROVE THE CONSENT AGENDA, MINUS THOSE PULL DOWNS IDENTIFIED. AND THAT WOULD BE STARTING AT 260163 THROUGH AND INCLUDING. 260172. WE HAVE A MOTION BY COUNCILMAN CLAUDIA, SECOND BY COUNCILMAN FRANKLIN. PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTE. THAT

[Consider/Discuss/Act on an Ordinance Amending Chapter 54 “Licenses and Business Regulations” of the Code of Ordinances by Establishing Article VII “Short-Term Rental Registration” to Require the Annual Registration of All Short-Term Rentals Located within the City’s Corporate Limits]

MOTION CARRIES THE CONSENT AGENDA HAS BEEN PULLED. NOW, LET'S RUN THROUGH THOSE PULL DOWNS. FIRST ITEM I'LL PULL DOWN IS 260166. THIS DEALS WITH SHORT TERM RENTAL REGISTRATION.

I THINK WE HAVE. AND I'M GOING TO VOTE AGAINST THIS. AND I'LL TELL YOU WHY. CERTAINLY AGREE THAT PROPERTY OWNERS AND THEIR NEIGHBORS SHOULD BE ABLE TO LIVE TOGETHER. AND PROPERTY OWNERSHIP COMES WITH SOME OBLIGATIONS IN ADDITION TO SOME, SOME BENEFITS. ONE OF THOSE OBLIGATIONS IS YOU NEED TO MAINTAIN YOUR PROPERTY AND KEEP IT CLEAN. AND ONE OF THE RIGHTS OF A HOMEOWNER IS TO DO WHAT YOU WANT TO DO WITHIN THE BOUNDS OF THE LAWS OF THE CITY YOU LIVE IN. IN MCKINNEY, WE HAVE ORDINANCES IN PLACE FOR TRASH, NOISE, LIGHTING, PARKING, AND ANY OTHER NUISANCE THAT MIGHT BE OUT THERE. SO THE QUESTION ABOUT SHORT TERM RENTALS IS AN ENFORCEMENT QUESTION, AND I JUST DON'T SEE THE BENEFIT OF HAVING SOMEONE REGISTER AND GIVE THE CITY THEIR NAME AND NUMBER TO REACH THE GOAL, WHICH IS TO ENFORCE EXISTING ORDINANCES THAT WE HAVE. SO WHEN WE GET TO IT, IF THERE IS A MOTION TO APPROVE

[Consider/Discuss/Act on a Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Contract with CP&Y Inc. dba STV Infrastructure for Professional Engineering Design Services for the Stonebridge Drive (US 380 to Bloomdale Road) Project and Authorizing Any Necessary Supplemental Agreements]

GARY GRAHAM DIRECTOR OF ENGINEERING. SO I APOLOGIZE FOR THE TYPO THERE. WE HAD THE WRONG CONSULTANT LISTED. IT WAS LISTED AS CPNI. IT ACTUALLY IS KIMLEY-HORN. EVERYTHING ELSE IN THE PACKET IS CORRECT. THE RESOLUTION IS CORRECT WITH KIMLEY-HORN AS JUST WANT TO MAKE SURE EVERYBODY WAS AWARE THAT READ THE AGENDA OF THE MISTAKE LISTED ON THE AGENDA.

[Consider/Discuss/Act on a Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Term Sheet with Provident Realty Advisors, Inc., Governing the Annexation, Zoning, and Development of Approximately 65 Acres of Land Generally Located East of State Highway 5 and south of State Highway 121]

WE HAD THE ANNUAL AUDIT, AND ONCE AGAIN FOR. I'VE BEEN ON COUNCIL. NOW THIS. I'M INTO MY FIFTH YEAR FOR THE FIFTH TIME. WE PASSED WITH FLYING COLORS AND I NEGLECTED TO THANK STAFF FOR THAT. IT'S A HEAVY LIFT. IT'S A BIG DEAL THAT WE GET A COMPANY LIKE WEAVER IN HERE AND AUDIT OUR FINANCIALS EVERY YEAR, AND WE ARE SQUEAKY CLEAN. AND SO I WANT TO THANK OUR STAFF. WE'RE I'M JUST SO PROUD TO SERVE WITH THEM. AND YOU KNOW THAT'S STEVE TILTON'S GROUP WITH MARK HOLLOWAY CHANCE AND TRUDY AND KELVIN. SO I WANT TO THANK YOU AND MR. MAYOR WITH THAT I'LL MOVE THAT. WE ACCEPT AND PASS 26-017 FOR SECOND. WE HAVE A MOTION BY COUNCILMAN CLAUDIA TO APPROVE 26017 FOR SECOND BY MAYOR PRO TEM FELTZ. PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTES. AND, MR. MAYOR,

[00:35:04]

I'D LIKE TO. I APPRECIATE YOUR REMARKS. I DO THINK THAT A REGISTRATION OF STRS IS VERY IMPORTANT. ONE THING THAT REGISTRATION WOULD ALSO HELP US WITH IS RECONCILING THESE PROPERTIES TO MAKE SURE THEY'RE PAYING HOTEL OCCUPANCY TAXES, WHICH IS PRESCRIBED BY THE LAW.

AND THIS WILL HELP ASSURE THAT WE KNOW WHO THEY ARE. SO WITH THAT, I'LL MAKE A MOTION THAT WE APPROVE THAT. 260166 SECOND, WE HAVE A MOTION BY COUNCILMAN CLAUDIA TO APPROVE 260166, SECOND BY MAYOR PRO TEM FELTZ. OKAY, WAIT A SECOND. EMPRESS HAS 260166.

REGULAR AGENDA. AND THESE ITEMS MAY HAVE PUBLIC HEARINGS ATTACHED. FIRST ITEM IS 260175.

CONSIDER A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE A CONTRACT WITH THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT DALLAS TO PROVIDE FACILITATION SERVICES FOR THE BETTER TOGETHER INITIATIVE AND AUTHOR, AND AUTHORIZING ANY SUPPLEMENTAL AGREEMENTS. GOOD EVENING, MAYOR AND COUNCIL, MARGARET LEE, HOUSING AND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DIRECTOR.

SO I'M HERE TO PROVIDE YOU WITH A BRIEF UPDATE ON THE BETTER TOGETHER INITIATIVE, AND ALSO TO HIGHLIGHT SOME OF THE IMPORTANT WORK THAT WE'RE ABOUT TO EMBARK ON. SO IN OCTOBER, WE ESTABLISHED THE FRAMEWORK FOR THE INITIATIVE BY ADOPTING GUIDING PRINCIPLES THAT RECOGNIZE THE NEED FOR A COMPREHENSIVE AND COMMUNITY BASED APPROACH TO ADDRESSING THE MULTIFACETED ISSUES OF HOMELESSNESS. SINCE THEN, WE HAVE HELD AN OPEN REQUEST FOR PROPOSALS PROCESS, IN WHICH WE RECEIVED FOUR SUBMISSIONS. BASED ON THE EVALUATION COMMITTEE'S RECOMMENDATION, THE UNIVERSITY OF TEXAS AT DALLAS WAS SELECTED TO FACILITATE THE

[00:40:05]

INITIATIVE. THEIR SCOPE OF WORK WILL INCLUDE THE DEVELOPMENT AND IMPLEMENTATION OF A COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT PLAN, A COMPREHENSIVE NEEDS ASSESSMENT, AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF A STRATEGIC PLAN AND IMPLEMENTATION PLAN. UPON APPROVAL, WE WILL KICK OFF THE INITIATIVE IMMEDIATELY. WE ANTICIPATE COMPLETING THE PUBLIC OUTREACH AND NEEDS ASSESSMENT PHASES IN MAY AND THE FINAL STRATEGIC PLAN IMPLEMENTATION PLANS BY OCTOBER.

WE ENCOURAGE ALL OF OUR STAKEHOLDERS, HOUSED AND UNHOUSED, TO REMAIN ENGAGED, STAY INFORMED AND ACTIVELY PARTICIPATE IN THE PROCESS. ALL OF THE INITIATIVE DOCUMENTS AND INFORMATION WILL BE AVAILABLE ON THE BETTER TOGETHER INITIATIVE PAGE OF THE CITY'S WEBSITE, WHICH I HAVE HERE ON THE SCREEN FOR YOU. AND I ALSO HAVE ELIZABETH SEARING FROM UTD HERE AS WELL, IN CASE THE COUNCIL HAS ANY QUESTIONS OR COMMENTS. AND SO THAT CONCLUDES MY PRESENTATION AND HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. MARGARET, I WANT TO THANK YOU FOR ALL THE WORK YOU GUYS HAVE DONE. I'M ON I WAS ON THE COMMITTEE AND IT WAS A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE TO BE ON THIS COMMITTEE AND LISTENING TO ALL THE STAKEHOLDERS, AND MY PERSONAL FEELING IS, AND I THINK IT WAS, BY AND LARGE, SHARED BY THE COMMITTEE, THAT UT DALLAS IS VERY UNIQUELY POSITIONED TO HELP US WITH THIS. THEY'VE GOT A TON OF EXPERIENCE HERE LOCALLY, ACTUALLY, ONE OF THE LEADS OF THE PROGRAM FOR UTD LIVES IN MCKINNEY. AND SO I'M REALLY LOOKING FORWARD TO SEEING WHAT THIS CAN DO. ANYONE ELSE? MARGARET, WE'VE HAD A NUMBER OF OF OUR CITIZENS SAY THEY WOULD LIKE TO GET INVOLVED IN THE PROCESS, WHATEVER THE PROCESS LOOKS LIKE. WILL THERE BE AN OPPORTUNITY AT SOME POINT FOR CITIZENS TO SAY, I WANT TO HELP, I WANT TO SERVE, I WANT TO VOLUNTEER. AND SO AS PART OF THE COMMUNITY OUTREACH PROCESS, WE WILL BE ESTABLISHING A MYRIAD OF STEERING COMMITTEES AND WORKING GROUPS FOR UTD TO HAVE LISTENING SESSIONS TO GET ALL OF THAT INFORMATION, BECAUSE WE WANT TO MAKE SURE THAT EVERYONE'S VOICE IS HEARD. SO WE DEFINITELY WELCOME EVERYONE TO PARTICIPATE IN THE PROCESS. THANK YOU VERY MUCH. ANYONE ELSE? OKAY, WE NEED A MOTION ON. I'LL MOVE THAT. WE APPROVE THIS ITEM, MR. MAYOR. 260175I HAVE A MOTION BY COUNCILMAN CLAUDIA TO APPROVE ITEM 26-0175 SECOND SECOND BY MAYOR PRO TEM FOUTS. ALL THOSE IN FAVOR? I GUESS YOU'RE UP.

LET'S TRY IT. PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTES. BAM! LONG DAY, MR. MAYOR. THAT WORKS. VERY GOOD, MARGARET.

[Conduct a Public Hearing to Consider/Discuss/Act on a Request to Rezone the Subject Property from “PD” - Planned Development District to “PD” - Planned Development District, Generally to Allow for a New and Unlisted Use (Hangar Home) and to Modify the Development Standards, Located Approximately 515 Feet North of Virginia Parkway and Approximately 550 Feet West of Virginia Hills Drive and Located 830 Feet North of Virginia Parkway and Approximately 640 feet West of Virginia Hills Drive, and Accompanying Ordinance]

THANK YOU. THAT ITEM HAS BEEN APPROVED. THE NEXT ITEM IS 25-0170Z2. A PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER REZONING FOR PROPERTY FROM PD TO PD TO ALLOW FOR NEW AND UNLISTED USE HANGAR HOME AND TO MODIFY THE DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS. THIS IS 500FT NORTH OF VIRGINIA PARKWAY AND 500FT WEST OF VIRGINIA HILLS DRIVE. THE LOCATION IS 830 I'M SORRY, 803RD. THIS IS REALLY COMPLICATED. 830FT NORTH OF VIRGINIA PARKWAY AND 640FT WEST OF VIRGINIA HILLS DRIVE, NEAR AERO COUNTRY AIRPORT. MR. REILLY, THERE'LL BE A QUIZ AFTER THIS. THANK YOU VERY MUCH.

COUNCIL SAID THE GUY WHO WENT TO CORNELL, LUCAS REILLY, DIRECTOR OF PLANNING HERE TO PRESENT A FEW ITEMS TONIGHT, THE FIRST BEING A REZONING. THIS WILL SOUND VERY FAMILIAR.

JUST NORTH OF THIS SUBJECT PROPERTY, WE CONSIDERED A SIMILAR REZONING REQUEST THAT YOU ALL RECENTLY APPROVED. ORIGINALLY, THESE SITES WERE APPROVED FOR A PD ZONING THAT ALLOWED FOR TOWNHOME HANGAR HOMES, THE ONLY CHANGE BEING THAT NOW THEY ARE SINGLE FAMILY, SO THERE'S NO WALL TO WALL CONSTRUCTION. THEY'RE INDIVIDUALLY BUILT HANGAR HOMES.

AND SO THIS IS JUST ANOTHER COUPLE OF THE LOTS. THEY'RE REZONING THEM TO ALLOW FOR THAT SAME USE TYPE AS PREVIOUSLY APPROVED. JUST TO THE NORTH, PNC RECOMMENDED APPROVAL SEVEN ZERO. AND I WILL BE HAPPY TO STAND FOR ANY QUESTIONS. HOW MANY LOTS ARE LEFT OVER THERE TO BE DEVELOPED? I WOULD HAVE TO DEFER TO THE APPLICANT ON THAT ONE. I BELIEVE THAT WHAT YOU SEE HERE IS WHAT'S BEEN DEVELOPED. THERE'S THREE OR 2 OR 3 OF THE TOWNHOMES, AND THEY FEEL LIKE THE SINGLE FAMILY PROPERTY IS GOING TO HAVE MORE. AGAIN, I DON'T WANT TO SPEAK OUT OF TURN. I WAS JUST THINKING, BECAUSE, YOU KNOW, WE'VE HAD A COUPLE COUPLE SESSIONS NOW WHERE THESE HAVE COME UP LIKE WE DISCUSSED, IF, YOU KNOW, IF WE JUST WANT THESE HERE, I THINK EVERYBODY HERE VOTED YAY. THE LAST COUPLE TIMES THESE APPEARED. SO I JUST

[00:45:01]

WONDER IF THERE'S A WAY FOR US TO MITIGATE THESE NOT COMING UP ALL THE TIME OR ARE THEY JUST, YOU KNOW, FOR THE REMAINING LOTS? IT CAN'T BE THAT MANY OVER THERE IN AERO COUNTRY. NO, NO, THIS THIS AGAIN I'LL DEFER TO THE APPLICANT. BUT THIS SHOULD COVER THE REST OF THE LOTS AVAILABLE FOR THE OKAY OF THE TWO. OKAY. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OF MR. REILLY? NO, SIR. OKAY. THANK YOU. IS THERE APPLICANT HERE? BRIAN? HI, BRIAN. I'M TEXAS DEVELOPMENT SERVICES HERE REPRESENTING THE CLIENT. AND YES, THERE'LL BE TWO LOTS IN BETWEEN THESE TWO ZONING REQUESTS. THEY ALREADY HAVE A PLAN PUT TOGETHER TO BUILD WHAT THEY'RE GOING TO BUILD, BUT THE REMAINING LOTS ARE PREFERRED TO BE THE SINGLE FAMILY OVER THE TOWNHOME. AND WE RESPECTFULLY REQUEST YOUR APPROVAL. BRIAN, DO THESE HAVE RUNWAY ACCESS? THESE INDIRECTLY THROUGH THE INTERIOR ROAD SYSTEM AND RUNWAY SYSTEM TAXIWAYS. I SEE MIKE THOMPSON DOWN TO RIGHT SKYWAGON, WHICH ALL OF THEM ARE PRIVATE STREETS, BUT HANGAR WILL FACE TO THE WEST. NO AIRPLANES ARE ALLOWED ON LLOYD STEARMAN AND ALL THE ACCESS TO THE RUNWAY WILL BE FROM THAT ACCESS TO THE SOUTH THAT YOU SEE DOWN THERE THROUGH THOMPSON, AND THEN THE ROADS THAT CONNECT IT. AND THEN THEY'RE BUILDING ANOTHER ACCESS ON THE NORTH END OF THE RUNWAY.

IT'LL COME TO ME. ANYONE ELSE? THANK YOU VERY MUCH. WE APPRECIATE YOU BEING HERE. THIS IS A PUBLIC HEARING ITEM. IF YOU'D LIKE TO WEIGH IN ON THIS PROPOSED REZONE, PLEASE COME TO THE PODIUM. WE HAVE NO ONE SIGNED UP, SO ANYONE IN THE AUDIENCE? NO. THEN WE'LL MOVE

[Conduct a Public Hearing to Consider/Discuss/Act on a Request to Rezone the Subject Property from “AG” - Agriculture District and “PD” - Planned Development District to “C2” - Local Commercial District, Located on the Southwest Corner of Virginia Parkway and South Jordan Road, and Accompanying Ordinance]

ON. MR. MAYOR, I'D LIKE TO MAKE A MOTION. WE APPROVE THIS ITEM. HAVE A MOTION BY COUNCILMAN FRANKLIN TO. I'LL SECOND CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND APPROVE THE ITEMS FOR STAFF RECOMMENDATION. SECOND BY COUNCILMAN CLAUDIA, ANY DISCUSSION, PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTE. THAT MOTION CARRIES BY A VOTE OF SIX IN FAVOR AND ZERO AGAINST. THE NEXT ITEM IS 260001Z. TO A PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER. REZONE FROM A PROPERTY FROM AG TO PD, FROM PD TO C-2 LOCAL COMMERCIAL DISTRICT. THIS IS THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF VIRGINIA PARKWAY AND SOUTH JORDAN ROAD. MR. REILLY ALL RIGHT, SO THIS PROPERTY IS APPROXIMATELY 5.959 ACRES.

WE'LL SAY SIX ACRES IN LAND AREA LOCATED AT THE SOUTHWEST CORNER OF VIRGINIA PARKWAY AND SOUTH JORDAN ROAD. AS MENTIONED, THE PROPOSED ZONING WOULD REZONE IT FROM ITS EXISTING DESIGNATION OF AGRICULTURAL AND PD TO C2, OUR LOCAL COMMERCIAL DISTRICT. THIS REQUEST WOULD ALLOW FOR COMMERCIAL USES THAT ARE CONSISTENT WITH THE C2 DISTRICT, WHICH DOES ALIGN WITH OUR COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, WHICH CALLS FOR, I BELIEVE, NEIGHBORHOOD COMMERCIAL IN THIS SITE. AT THIS STATE, WE ARE EVALUATING THE LAND USE, COMPATIBILITY OF THE LOCATION WITH THE COMP PLAN, AND AS SUCH, WE RECOMMENDED APPROVAL. P AND Z RECOMMENDS APPROVAL WITH A VOTE OF FIVE TWO. AS I MENTIONED, WE RECOMMEND APPROVAL AS WELL. I KNOW THAT ONE OF THE PRIMARY CONCERNS FOR THIS LOCATION, BROUGHT UP AT PNC AND THROUGH CITIZEN COMMENT LEADING UP TO TONIGHT'S MEETING, IS POTENTIAL IMPACTS ON TRAFFIC FOR FUTURE LAND USES. JUST TO SPEAK TO THAT BRIEFLY, AT THIS POINT, WE'RE TALKING ABOUT WHAT WE VIEW AS THE APPROPRIATE LAND USE DESIGNATION FOR THE ZONING DISTRICT. FUTURE CONCERNS ABOUT TRAFFIC WOULD HAPPEN AT THE SITE PLAN STAGE ONCE AN ACTUAL USE CAME IN. APPLYING TO BE PLACED ON THIS SITE, I WILL STAND FOR ANY QUESTIONS. WE ALSO HAVE ENGINEERING HERE IF YOU HAVE QUESTIONS MORE SPECIFIC TO THAT POINT. DO WE HAVE INTENDED USE ALREADY FOR THE PROPERTY? SO THE INTENDED USE IS, AS I UNDERSTAND IT, ARE RESTAURANT AND DAYCARE. BUT WE DO HAVE AN APPLICANT HERE AND SPEAK TO THAT. AND LUCAS GETTING BACK TO THE TRAFFIC A LITTLE BIT. THERE'S A LOT OF ACTIVITY IN THE MORNINGS ON THE NORTH PART OF THIS INTERSECTION WITH IMAGINE ACADEMY AND M.C.A.

THIS IS, OF COURSE ON THE SOUTH PART OF THE INTERSECTION, SO OCCASIONALLY I'LL TAKE THE STREET TO WORK IN THE MORNING AND SEE A LITANY OF CARS LINED UP, LOOKING TO GO LOOK IN THE DEDICATED LEFT HAND TURN LANE, LOOKING TO MAKE A LEFT ON JORDAN. BUT THEY'D BE GOING TO

[00:50:04]

THE RIGHT HERE AS FAR AS YOU KNOW. AND MAYBE THIS IS GARY GRAHAM. QUESTION IS DOES HAVE WE DONE TRAFFIC STUDIES TO SEE IF THIS IS OKAY, OR IS THERE GOING TO NEED TO BE ANY ROAD WORK DONE BY THE APPLICANT IN ORDER TO ACCOMMODATE THIS USE AND KEEP OUR TRAFFIC GOING LIKE A DIESEL LANE OR SOMETHING? I TOLD GARY I WOULD NOT BE A TRAFFIC ENGINEER TODAY. THANK YOU SIR FOR DOING SUCH A GREAT JOB. GARY GRAHAM, DIRECTOR OF ENGINEERING. SO WE HAVE NOT DONE ANY RECENT TRAFFIC STUDIES. OF COURSE, YOU KNOW, WE JUST COMPLETED THE WIDENING TO SIX LANES A FEW YEARS AGO THAT HELPED TO CAPACITY. AND THERE THERE ARE A LOT OF QUEUING DELAYS TRYING TO GO INTO THE TO THE NORTH TO GET TO IMAGINE ACADEMY IN THE MORNING. IT'S EVEN WORSE IN THE AFTERNOON DISMISSAL BECAUSE OF PARENTS WANT TO BE THERE EARLY TO GET THROUGH THE LINE QUICKER AND SO BUT WE HAVEN'T LOOKED ON THE SOUTH SIDE TO EVALUATE ANYTHING.

WE WOULD WAIT TILL WE SAW WHAT THE ACTUAL PLAN IT WAS AND THEN OKAY, SO THAT'S COMING UP THEN.

CORRECT? OKAY. THANK YOU. IS THERE APPLICANT HERE. YES. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT I'M BOB ELLIS WITH RCM ENGINEERS, 1110 COLLINS BOULEVARD RICHARDSON, TEXAS. AND WITH REQUEST TO THIS REZONING. AND AS YOU KNOW, WITH THE SITE PLAN PROCESS, THAT'LL BE OUR NEXT STEP IN HERE. THE PLAN IS ON THE NORTH PART OF THE PROPERTY IS TO PUT RESTAURANT AND RETAIL, AND THE DAYCARE IS ON THE SOUTH PORTION OF THE PROPERTY ALONGSIDE JORDAN. SO WITH THAT, I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. QUESTIONS. HAVE YOU JUST CURIOUS, HAVE YOU BEEN TO SEE THE TRAFFIC IN THE MORNING AND IN THE AFTERNOON AROUND THAT INTERSECTION? NO, I HAVE NOT.

OKAY. YOU MAY WANT TO JUST CHECK IT OUT. I MEAN, I KNOW WE ARE WHERE WE ARE AND I DON'T HAVE ANY OBJECTION TO YOU, SIR. AND I APPRECIATE YOU BEING HERE, BUT, YOU KNOW, THOSE SCHOOLS DO HAVE A LOT. I DON'T THINK YOU'RE GOING TO IMPACT THAT. BUT IT WOULDN'T BE BAD FOR YOU TO PUT YOUR EYEBALLS ON IT. JUST ONE GUY TO ANOTHER. ANYONE ELSE? THANK YOU. WE APPRECIATE YOU BEING HERE. THIS IS A PUBLIC HEARING ITEM AND WE HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY FOR THE AUDIENCE TO PARTICIPATE. IF YOU'VE COME TONIGHT AND WOULD LIKE TO WEIGH IN ON THIS POTENTIAL REZONE, PLEASE COME TO THE PODIUM. FIRST CARD IS DIDI SOLTZ. MISS SCHULTZ. HI.

THANK YOU FOR LETTING ME SPEAK TONIGHT. MY NAME IS DIDI SCHULTZ, AND I'VE BEEN THE DIRECTOR OF HERITAGE LEARNING CENTER FOR 17 YEARS. DIRECTOR HAS BEEN HERITAGE HAS BEEN THERE FOR OVER 30 YEARS, AND HERITAGE IS LOCATED AT 200 NORTH JORDAN ROAD, JUST NORTH.

AND SO I'M SPEAKING TO THE THE TRAFFIC. YES. AND THEN JUST ANOTHER POINT AS WELL. SO MY NAME I JUST TALKED ABOUT THAT. SO HERE TONIGHT I'D LIKE TO RESPECTFULLY SHARE MY CONCERN OR OUR CONCERNS REGARDING THE PROPOSED REZONING OF THE LAND AT THE CORNER OF VIRGINIA AND JORDAN. FIRST, TRAFFIC AT THIS INTERSECTION IS A SIGNIFICANT CHALLENGE FOR OUR FAMILIES AND THE FAMILIES OF NOT ONLY OUR FAMILIES, BUT ALSO IMAGINE ACADEMY. AND JUST AS A SIDE NOTE, WE DO BUS RUN MORNING AND AFTERNOON. WE TAKE KIDS TO SCHOOL AND WE HAVE BEEN HIT.

OUR BUS HAS BEEN HIT BECAUSE, AS WAS STATED, IMAGINE FAMILIES DO LINE UP TO TRY TO GET INTO FOR EARLY PICKUP FOR THEIR KIDDOS. AND SO THE TRAFFIC WILL BACK UP RIGHT THERE. AND SO UNKNOWING MOTORISTS WILL BE IN THAT LEFT LANE THINKING THEY'RE GOING TO BE GOING QUICK, AND THEY'LL SEE THAT IT'S STOPPING AND THEN THEY'LL JERK OVER REALLY QUICKLY TO THAT, THAT MIDDLE LANE. AND THAT'S HOW WE WERE HIT BEFORE. AND WE'VE ALSO WITNESSED SEVERAL NOT WITNESSED I'M SORRY, BUT WITNESSED THE AFTERMATH OF SEVERAL ACCIDENTS IN THAT IN THAT SAME INTERSECTION. SO OUR WORRY IS ADDING ANOTHER HIGH TRAFFIC DEVELOPMENT SO CLOSE TO THESE CAMPUSES COULD PUSH ANOTHER ALREADY STRAINED SITUATION TO A BREAKING POINT. AND THEN THE SECOND THING, NOT ONLY FOR THE THE TRAFFIC, IS THAT MCKINNEY ALREADY HAS A SUBSTANTIAL NUMBER OF CHILD CARE PROVIDERS. CURRENT ESTIMATES INDICATE THAT THERE ARE ROUGHLY 140 LICENSED CHILD CARE CENTERS, CHILD CARE HOMES, AND OPERATING WITHIN OUR CITY. ALREADY, MANY OF THESE PROGRAMS, INCLUDING LONG STANDING CENTERS LIKE OURS, HAVE EXPERIENCED SIGNIFICANT SHIFTS SINCE COVID. MANY CLASSROOMS ACROSS THE CITY ARE NOT OPERATING AT FULL CAPACITY, AND MANY PROVIDERS ARE STILL WORKING TO STABILIZE ENROLLMENT LEVELS IN A CHANGED CHILD CARE LANDSCAPE. SO INTRODUCING ADDITIONAL CHILD CARE CAPACITY IN SUCH IN SUCH A CLOSE PROXIMITY DOES NOT MEET AN UNMET NEED. INSTEAD, IT RISKS OVERSATURATING THE MARKET THAT IS STILL RECOVERING AND POTENTIALLY WEAKENING ESTABLISHED SMALL BUSINESSES THAT HAVE FAITHFULLY SERVED MCKINNEY FAMILIES FOR DECADES. HERITAGE LEARNING CENTER, FOR EXAMPLE, HAS INVESTED NEARLY 40 YEARS IN THIS COMMUNITY. WE HAVE BUILT RELATIONSHIPS WITH

[00:55:01]

FAMILIES ACROSS THE GENERATIONS, HIRED AND TRAINED LOCAL EDUCATORS, AND CONTRIBUTED TO THE STABILITY OF OUR NEIGHBORHOOD. WE ARE NOT. WE ARE NOT OPPOSED, OF COURSE, TO GROWTH. MCKINNEY IS A THRIVING AND VIBRANT CITY, AND WE UNDERSTAND THAT DEVELOPMENT IS PART OF THAT PROCESS OF SUCCESS. HOWEVER, GROWTH SHOULD BE STRATEGIC AND CONSIDERATE OF EXISTING INFRASTRUCTURE, TRAFFIC AND REALITIES AND THE LONG STANDING COMMUNITY INSTITUTIONS ALREADY IN PLACE. SO WE RESPECTFULLY ASK THAT YOU CAREFULLY CONSIDER THE CUMULATIVE TRAFFIC AND BUSINESS IMPACT THIS REZONING COULD HAVE ON SURROUNDING SCHOOLS AND CHILD CARE CENTERS BEFORE MAKING YOUR DECISION, THOUGHTFUL PLANNING TODAY WILL HELP PRESERVE SAFETY, SUSTAINABILITY, AND THE LAW AND THE STRONG COMMUNITY COMMUNITY FOUNDATION THAT MAKES MCKINNEY SUCH A SPECIAL PLACE TO LIVE AND RAISE A FAMILY. SO. AND THEN ALSO, AS A SIDE NOTE, I VISITED ANOTHER CHILDCARE CENTER. I START TALKING SO QUICKLY, BUT I VISITED ANOTHER CHILDCARE CENTER AT CUSTER AND CLOSE TO 121 NOT GOING TO NAME THE NAME, BUT THEIR LICENSE FOR OVER 600 STUDENTS AND THEY HAVE 50. SO SUNRISE LEARNING CENTER JUST RECENTLY CLOSED, DISCOVERIES CLOSED. SO WE HAVE SEVERAL CENTERS HAVE CLOSED DOWN RECENTLY AND WE JUST HAVE THERE'S A LOT OF SCHOOLS ALREADY IN MCKINNEY. SO THANK YOU FOR THAT CONSIDERATION. THANK YOU, MISS SCHULTZ. THANK YOU FOR YOUR LETTER. ALSO APPRECIATE THAT ANYONE ELSE IN THE AUDIENCE. OKAY. HAVE QUESTIONS, COMMENTS, MOTIONS I'LL MAKE A REMARK, THEN I'LL MAKE A MOTION. MA'AM, I APPRECIATE YOUR YOUR REMARKS.

AND YOU KNOW, I ASKED ABOUT THE TRAFFIC AND WE'RE GOING TO DO TRAFFIC STUDY FOR THIS THING GOES IN. BUT THE JOB OF THIS COUNCIL IS NOT TO LITIGATE WHERE PRIVATE INVESTMENT GOES IN THE CITY. I WOULDN'T WANT TO BE PART OF SUCH A TRIBUNAL THAT THE PRIVATE BUSINESS MAKES DECISIONS ON WHERE THEY GO TO COMPETE. SO IT'S JUST NOT THAT PART IS NOT A CONSIDERATION FOR ME. WITH THAT, MR. MAYOR, I MOVE THAT WE APPROVE THIS ITEM, HAVE A MOTION BY COUNCILMAN CLAUDIA TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND APPROVE THE ITEM. AS FOR STAFF RECOMMENDATION, I'LL SECOND LUCAS. IS THAT CORRECT? DID YOU RECOMMEND APPROVAL? OKAY. MOTION BY COUNCILMAN, SECOND BY COUNCILMAN JONES. IS THERE ANY DISCUSSION? PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTE. OKAY. THAT MOTION CARRIES BY A VOTE OF SIX IN FAVOR AND ZERO AGAINST. OUR NEXT ITEM,

[Conduct a Public Hearing to Consider/Discuss/Act on a Specific Use Permit Request for a Drive-Through Restaurant, Located Approximately 1,030 Feet West of North Custer Road and on the South Side of US Highway 380 (West University Drive), and Accompanying Ordinance]

25-0018. SUP. PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER A SPECIFIC USE PERMIT FOR A DRIVE THROUGH RESTAURANT 1000FT WEST OF CUSTER ROAD, ON THE SOUTH SIDE OF US HIGHWAY 380. MR. RILEY. ALL RIGHT, SO OUR NEXT ITEM HERE IS A SPECIFIC USE PERMIT THAT IS NOW REQUIRED. IF YOU ALL REMEMBER, WE UPDATED THE UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE LAST YEAR TO REQUIRE DRIVEWAY SPEAKER BOXES TO BE LOCATED A MINIMUM OF 200FT FROM ADJACENT SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL USES. IN THIS CASE, THE SPEAKER BOX IS PROPOSED TO BE LOCATED APPROXIMATELY 66FT FROM THE RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY LINE. THEY ARE ALSO, EXCUSE ME. THEY ARE ALSO REQUESTING A REDUCTION TO ALLOW PARKING SPACES TEN FEET FROM THE SINGLE FAMILY RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY LINE, WHICH I BELIEVE WOULD MIRROR THE ADJACENT DEVELOPMENT. AT THIS POINT, STAFF DOES RECOMMEND DENIAL DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE REQUEST DOES NOT MEET THE UDC REQUIREMENTS. PNC DID RECOMMEND APPROVAL OF THE ITEM WITH A VOTE OF 5 TO 2. I'LL STAND FOR ANY QUESTIONS.

LUCAS, COULD YOU EXPLAIN THAT PARKING ONE MORE TIME? YES. THE REQUEST ON THE PARKING, IF YOU CAN SEE HERE. I'M NOT SURE IF I CAN DRAW THAT FAR DOWN. NOW. IT'S HARD TO SEE IT NOW, AT THE BOTTOM OF THE SCREEN FOR THE ANNOTATION OFF THOSE PARKING SPACES AT THE BOTTOM, WE GENERALLY REQUIRE A 20 FOOT LANDSCAPE BUFFER, AND THEY ARE REQUESTING A TEN. WE USED TO ONLY REQUIRE A TEN. AND SO YOU CAN SEE THE ADJACENT DEVELOPMENT THERE THAT HAS A TEN FOOT BUFFER. WE TURN THE ANNOTATION OFF JUST TO SEE. YEAH I THINK WE CAN DO IT OVER HERE. THERE. THAT BOTTOM BAR WON'T GO DOESN'T GO AWAY. THERE IT IS. IT DID GO AWAY. PERFECT.

SO YOU CAN SEE THERE WHERE THOSE SPACES ARE SPACED TEN FOOT OFF OF THAT RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY LINE. SO THAT'S THE SECOND PART OF THIS REQUEST. OKAY. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS? LUCAS, WHEN DID WE CHANGE THE LANDSCAPE SETBACK? I THINK AT THE SAME TIME LAST YEAR. YEP.

JUST ADD TO MY COMMENT ON THAT. I THINK, YOU KNOW, A LOT OF THE SITES WERE DEVELOPED UNDER THE OLD CODE. CORRECT. AND THEN ARE NOW SEEKING ZONING AND STUFF UNDER THIS NEW CODE. AND WE'VE

[01:00:01]

SEEN SEVERAL OF THE CASES SPECIFICALLY WITH THE PARKING. I THINK THE SPEAKER BOX, WE'VE SEEN A COUPLE, BUT MORE SO THE PARKING, WE'VE SEEN SEVERAL THAT HAVE COME IN THAT ARE TRYING TO MATCH EXISTING DEVELOPMENTS. AND GENERALLY, IF IT WERE JUST THAT, WE'D PROBABLY COME WITH AN APPROVAL RECOMMENDATION. BUT WITH THE SPEAKER BOX AMENDMENT MADE JUST LAST YEAR, THAT'S WHERE OUR RECOMMENDATION FOR DENIAL COMES. IT DOES SEEM LIKE THERE SHOULD BE SOME LEEWAY GRANTED TO THESE ONES THAT WE'RE GOING TO COURT IN THE MIDDLE. THE DESIGN OF CHANGING THE CODE IS THE HOPE THAT NEW DEVELOPMENTS, YOU KNOW, ALLOCATE ENOUGH LAND THAT THEY DO HAVE THE SETBACKS AND THE PARKING FOR, YOU KNOW, OUTSIDE OF A 20 FOOT LANDSCAPE SETBACK AND ALL THAT BUILT IN. AND THIS ONE OBVIOUSLY DIDN'T. ABSOLUTELY. YEAH. REGARDING THE PARKING, I COMPLETELY AGREE. AND THEN AS I SAID FOR THE SPEAKER BOX, WE'RE TAKING THE DIRECTION OF COUNCIL TO TRANSITION THAT. AND IF I REMEMBER FROM THE PLANNING AND ZONING, THE DEVELOPER THAT DEVELOPED THE SINGLE FAMILY HOUSING ALSO SET ASIDE THIS PIECE FOR THE COMMERCIAL SO THAT THEY'RE THE ONES WHO KIND OF DREW THAT LINE BASED ON THE CODE THAT WE HAD. SO. CORRECT. YEAH. YOU CAN SEE TO THE WEST TO THAT SAME POINT, THE EXISTING PROPOSAL THAT WAS APPROVED FOR THE RETAIL SPACE JUST TO THE WEST HAS A MENU BOARD THERE THAT ALSO PREEMPTED OR PREDATED OUR CHANGE IN THE UDC LAST YEAR. AND THE DEVELOPER IS NOT THE ONLY WALL THAT'S GOING TO BE THERE IS FROM THE HOUSING DEVELOPMENT.

THERE'S NOT GOING TO BE ANOTHER RETAINING WALL HIGHER THAN THAT. IT'S GOING TO BE IT LOOKS LIKE A 6 FOOT OR 8 FOOT WALL RIGHT THERE. THAT'S MY UNDERSTANDING. BUT I WILL DEFER TO THE APPLICANT ON THAT QUESTION. OKAY. ANY OTHER QUESTIONS OF MR. REILLY? LUCAS. THANK. IS THERE APPLICANT IN THE ROOM? YES. HELLO. GOOD EVENING. MY NAME IS NAVAS IBRAHIM. I'M WITH BENCHMARK GROUP, REPRESENTING OUR CLIENT, ARCHITECTURAL AND ENGINEERING FIRM. REGARDING THE SPEAKER BOX, I'D LIKE TO ADD THAT THIS IS THIS IS GOING TO BE EQUIPPED WITH A FEATURE KNOWN AS AUTOMATIC VOLUME CONTROL OR AVC. THIS FEATURE WILL REDUCE THE SPEAKER LEVEL DURING QUIET PERIODS, HELPING TO SATISFY LOCAL REQUIREMENTS. I WOULD LIKE TO ALSO ADD THAT WE HAVE INCORPORATED SEVERAL MEASURES TO MITIGATE ANY POTENTIAL IMPACT TO THE ADJACENT RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY. WE ARE PROPOSING A CONSISTENT LANDSCAPE BUFFER OF 12 FOOT, 12 FOOT HIGH CANOPY TREES ALONG THE SOUTH PROPERTY LINE. THIS IS, WE BELIEVE, IN COMBINATION OF THE EXISTING EIGHT FOOT TALL MASONRY WALL. IT WILL PROVIDE THE NECESSARY VISUAL AND NOISE SEPARATION FROM THE RESIDENTIAL AREA. WE ARE ALSO NOT ANTICIPATING ANY HEAVY DRIVE THROUGH FOR THIS FUTURE TENANT. THEIR BUSINESS HOURS WILL BE LIMITED AND THEIR THE DRIVE THROUGH IS ALSO PLACED OVER 48FT DISTANCE FROM THE RESIDENTIAL PROPERTY. I WOULD LIKE TO ALSO ADD THAT THIS LOT HAS VERY UNIQUE CHALLENGES. IT IS BOTH SHALLOW AND NARROW AND IT HAS A LARGE UTILITY EASEMENT ALONG THE NORTH SIDE OF THE PROPERTY, WHICH SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCES THE USABLE DEPTH OF THE SITE. AND IT ELIMINATES ELIMINATES ALTERNATIVE PLACEMENT OPTIONS FOR THE DRIVE THROUGH. WE THINK GIVEN WE THINK GIVEN THE CONSTRAINTS OF THE SITE AND THE SEVERAL MITIGATION MEASURES THAT WE HAVE INCORPORATED, THIS IS THE MOST EFFICIENT AND COMPATIBLE USE OF THIS SITE, AND IT PROVIDES AND ALLOWS A SAFE VEHICULAR QUEUING AND EFFECTIVE AUDIO AND VISUAL SCREENING FROM NEARBY NEARBY RESIDENTIAL AREAS.

AND ARCHITECTURAL CONSISTENCY THAT IS ALREADY APPROVED FOR THE ADJACENT DEVELOPMENTS. I'M HAPPY TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE. THANK YOU FOR CONSIDERING OUR APPLICATION.

ANYONE QUESTIONS? WHAT ARE THE HOURS GOING TO BE FOR THE RESTAURANT AT 10 A.M. TO 10

[01:05:04]

P.M. OKAY, SO NO LATE NIGHT DRIVE THROUGH. OKAY. THAT'S GOOD. THANK YOU. THE DRIVE THROUGH FEATURE IS REALLY IN ADDITION, MOST OF THE CUSTOMERS ARE EXPECTED TO DINE IN. THAT'S WHY IT'S NOT ANTICIPATED TO HAVE A VERY HEAVY DRIVE THROUGH. OKAY. OTHER QUESTIONS ANYONE.

THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE. WE APPRECIATE IT VERY MUCH. THIS IS A PUBLIC HEARING ITEM. IF YOU COME TONIGHT AND WOULD LIKE TO ADDRESS THE CITY COUNCIL REGARDING THIS PROPOSED REZONING, PLEASE COME TO THE PODIUM SEEING NO ONE HAS SIGNED UP. WE HAVE QUESTIONS OR MOTIONS, DISCUSSION. I'LL MAKE A MOTION THAT WE CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND APPROVE THIS ITEM. I WILL. SECOND MOTION BY MAYOR PRO TEM FELTON TO CLOSE THE PUBLIC HEARING AND APPROVE THE ITEM FIRST PER APPLICANT REQUEST, RIGHT? YES. SECOND, BY COUNCILMAN CLAUDIA. ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTE. THAT MOTION CARRIES THAT SVP HAS BEEN APPROVED. NEXT

ITEM 26001M2A PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER AMENDMENTS TO CHAPTER 150 UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE OF THE CODE OF ORDINANCES TO ARTICLE ONE, SECTIONS 106108201203204 AND OTHERS.

MISS STRICKLAND THANK YOU. CAITLIN SHEFFIELD, CHIEF PLANNER WITH THE CITY OF MCKINNEY. BEFORE YOU, WE HAVE A COUPLE OF AMENDMENTS TO RUN THROUGH TO THE UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE. A LITTLE BIT OF BACKGROUND. WE INITIALLY ADOPTED THE UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE IN NOVEMBER OF 2022, AND EVER SINCE THEN WE HAVE BEEN CONTINUING MONITORING THE CODE, BRINGING FORWARD CODE AMENDMENTS BEFORE YOU. TWO DIFFERENT BUCKETS, IF YOU WILL.

FOR THOSE AMENDMENT TYPES, THERE ARE QUITE A BIT OF FINE TUNING AMENDMENTS, TYPOS, REFERENCES, MAYBE INCREASING OR PROVIDING CLARITY, USABILITY, ORGANIZATION OF THE CODE. AND THEN THE OTHER BUCKET IS SOME PROCEDURAL IMPROVEMENTS, MODIFICATION OF A USE REGULATION AND SOME ADJUSTMENTS TO DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS. FOR THE FINE TUNING AMENDMENTS.

ONE OF THEM IS UPDATING THE SUBMITTAL REQUIREMENTS FOR ANNEXATION EXHIBITS, ZONING EXHIBITS, SPECIFIC USE PERMIT EXHIBITS, SITE PLAN EXHIBITS. WE ALSO UPDATED SOME REQUIREMENTS FOR THE TREE PERMITS, TREE PRESERVATION PLAN, AND AERIAL TREE EXHIBITS AS WELL.

CURRENTLY, RIGHT NOW, THE HISTORIC PRESERVATION OFFICER HAS THE ABILITY TO. REVIEW, APPROVE OR DENY COMMERCIAL AREA CERTIFICATE OF OCCUPANCIES OR APPROPRIATENESS. EXCUSE ME.

IN ADDITION TO THAT, THE CERTIFICATE OF APPROPRIATENESS, WE ARE ADDING A AN AMENDMENT THAT THAT COULD EXPIRE AFTER ONE YEAR OF APPROVAL IF NO BUILDING PERMIT HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR THE SITE, OR IF A SITE PLAN OR BUILDING PERMIT HAS BEEN ISSUED BUT HAS BEEN LAPSED.

SOME USE REGULATION AMENDMENTS CURRENTLY RIGHT NOW IN C2 LOCAL COMMERCIAL DISTRICT, THE TRADITIONAL MULTIFAMILY IS NOT ALLOWED. WE DO ALLOW THE COTTAGE MULTIFAMILY TYPE OF PRODUCT WITH USE CRITERIA IN THE MIXED USE RESIDENTIAL USE. WITH STATE LAW CHANGES THAT WE HAD IN SEPTEMBER. SO RIGHT NOW WE ARE PROPOSING THAT THE TRADITIONAL MULTIFAMILY RESIDENTIAL PRODUCT COULD BE ALLOWED WITH APPROVAL OF A SPECIFIC USE PERMIT. SO WE'RE STILL MEETING STATE LAW WITH ALLOWING MULTIFAMILY IN THOSE DISTRICTS WITH THE COMMERCIAL C2 LOCAL COMMERCIAL DISTRICT. BUT WE ARE PROPOSING THAT THE SPECIFIC USE PERMIT WOULD BE AN ADDED OPTION FOR ACCESSORY STRUCTURES. WE ARE PROPOSING THAT THOSE WOULD BE ALLOWED AS AN ACCESSORY USE IN OUR THREE COMMERCIAL DISTRICTS ONE, TWO AND THREE, AS WELL AS THE TWO OFFICE DISTRICTS 0102 THE TWO INDUSTRIAL DISTRICTS I1 AND I2 GOVERNMENT COMPLEX IN AIRPORT DISTRICT. SOME CHANGES TO USE DEFINITION IN RELATION TO PASSENGER VEHICLE SALES.

[01:10:05]

CURRENTLY, THERE IS A REQUIREMENT THAT FUEL PUMP ISLANDS ARE REQUIRED TO BE AT LEAST 250FT AWAY FROM THE PROPERTY LINE. FOR SINGLE FAMILY DUPLEX TRIPLEX QUADPLEX USES.

LANDSCAPING. WE ARE INTRODUCING THE ABILITY TO REQUEST A DESIGN EXCEPTION TO MODIFY THE WIDTH OF ANY REQUIRED ADJACENCY BUFFERS FOR PARKING. RIGHT NOW, MEDICAL OR DENTAL CLINIC IS REQUIRED TO PARK AT ONE SPACE PER 300FT■!S. WE'RE PROPOSING AMENDMENT THAT THAT WOULD BE ALIGNED WITH THE GENERAL OFFICE AT ONE SPACE PER 400FT■!S. FOR THE TREE PRESERVATION ARTICLE, THERE ARE CLARIFICATION ITEMS IN THE PROPOSED AMENDMENTS FOR WHEN TREE PRESERVATION OR MITIGATION IS APPLICABLE TO SPECIMEN TREES. WE ARE ALSO PROPOSING TO INTRODUCE THAT REPLACEMENT TREES SHALL BE PLANTED WITHIN 90 DAYS OF THE NOTICE OF VIOLATION. WE DID BRING THESE AMENDMENTS FORWARD TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION AT THE FEBRUARY 10TH MEETING. THEY DID OFFER A FAVORABLE FAVORABLE RECOMMENDATION. AND WE ARE BEFORE YOU TONIGHT TO PROPOSE THESE AMENDMENTS, AND WE I WILL STAND FOR ANY QUESTIONS. THANK YOU. CAITLIN. ANYONE QUESTIONS? YES, SIR. THANK YOU. CAITLIN.

NEXT ITEM TONIGHT IS 260002MA PUBLIC HEARING TO CONSIDER CERTAIN AMENDMENTS TO CHAPTER 150 OF THE CODE OF ORDINANCES, SPECIFICALLY ARTICLE THREE, SECTION 301303 AND 304 AND 306.

AGAIN, UNIFIED DEVELOPMENT CODE ADOPTED IN NOVEMBER OF 2022 TO DIFFERENT BUCKETS, FINE TUNING AND PROCEDURAL IMPROVEMENTS. THE ONE NOTABLE PROCEDURAL IMPROVEMENT THAT I WANTED TO DISCUSS WAS THAT WE ARE REQUESTING TO REINTRODUCE THAT ONE BUILDING PERMIT MAY BE ISSUED FOR ONE SINGLE FAMILY BUILDING ON A LOT THAT MAY BE UNPLATTED, AND THAT FACES A DEDICATED STREET. THIS IS LANGUAGE THAT WAS IN THE PREVIOUS CODE BUT IS NOT IN THE UDC CURRENTLY, AND THE STAFF IS RECOMMENDING THAT WE ADD THIS BACK INTO THE UDC REQUIREMENTS. AND WITH THAT, I'LL STAND FOR ANY QUESTIONS. ANYONE. SO I'M TAKING A SPOT OF PERSONAL PRIVILEGE. I'VE CALLED YOU KATE AND SHEFFIELD THREE STRICKLAND TWO TIMES TONIGHT AND NOT ONE PERSON CORRECTED ME.

MOTION IS APPROVED. THE LAST ITEM ON OUR AGENDA, 260176. CONSIDER ADOPTION OF A RESOLUTION DETERMINING A PUBLIC NECESSITY TO ACQUIRE CERTAIN PROPERTIES IN FEE SIMPLE AND EASEMENT RIGHTS FOR PUBLIC USE BY EMINENT DOMAIN. THIS IS NEAR THE INTERSECTION OF 75 AND WEST ELDORADO PARKWAY TO THE NORTH, MEDICAL CENTER DRIVE AND SPUR 399. MR. GRAHAM, THANK YOU, MR. MAYOR. COUNCIL MEMBERS GARY GRAHAM, DIRECTOR OF ENGINEERING WE'RE HERE TO ASK FOR YOUR SUPPORT ON EMINENT DOMAIN REQUEST. THIS IS IN SUPPORT OF THE VENUE PROJECT. THERE ARE QUITE A FEW PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS NEED TO BE MADE TO SUPPORT THE FACILITY, AND WE NEED VARIOUS RIGHT OF WAY TEMPORARY CONSTRUCTION EASEMENTS AND PEDESTRIAN ACCESS EASEMENTS.

THERE ARE NINE PROPERTIES LISTED IN THIS RESOLUTION. WE ARE NEGOTIATING WITH ALL THE

[01:15:03]

PROPERTY OWNERS RIGHT NOW. THE PROPERTY, THE THE NEGOTIATIONS ARE GOING VERY WELL, BUT DUE TO THE TIME CONSTRAINTS ASSOCIATED WITH THE PROJECT, WE WANTED TO ASK FOR THIS AUTHORITY IN CASE IT'S NEEDED IN THE FUTURE. SO WITH THAT, YOU KNOW, AS WE SAY, WITH ALL OUR ACQUISITION CASES, THE CITY ALWAYS GETS A APPRAISAL FOR THE IMPROVEMENTS THAT ARE GOING TO IMPACT THE PROPERTY. WE USE THAT APPRAISAL TO MAKE THE FAIR MARKET VALUE TO THE PROPERTY OWNER. THE PROPERTY OWNER CAN REVIEW THAT, ACCEPT THAT OFFER. IF THEY FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH THAT, THEY CAN DO THEIR OWN APPRAISAL. THEY CAN MAKE A COUNTER-OFFER. STAFF EVALUATES THAT INFORMATION.

WE'LL MAKE A FINAL OFFER IF NO OFFER CAN BE REACHED. THIS IS WHEN WE COME TO YOU AND EXERCISE THE AUTHORITY FOR EMINENT DOMAIN. WHEN WE MAKE THAT EMINENT DOMAIN CASE, THIS COUNTY, COLLIN COUNTY COMMISSIONERS, APPOINT A SET OF SPECIAL COMMISSIONERS TO EVALUATE THE REQUEST BY THE CITY. ALSO HERE, THE THE INFORMATION FROM THE PROPERTY OWNER ABOUT THE VALUE. SPECIAL COMMISSIONERS. THEY ARE THE ONE THAT MAKE THE DETERMINATION WHAT THE VALUE OF THE ACQUISITION SHOULD BE. IT'S NOT A TAKING OF THE LAND, BUT IT'S AN OPPORTUNITY TO SET FAIR MARKET VALUE SO WE CAN MOVE FORWARD WITH THE PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS NEED TO SUPPORT THE PROJECT. SO WITH THAT I'M HAPPY TO TAKE ANY QUESTIONS.

THANK YOU MR. GRAHAM. ANY QUESTIONS. ALL RIGHT. DO WE HAVE A MOTION TO ADOPT THE RESOLUTION? I'LL MAKE A MOTION THAT WE ADOPT THE RESOLUTION. I'LL SECOND HAVE A MOTION BY MAYOR PRO TEM FELTON TO ADOPT THE RESOLUTION, AS PRESENTED BY MR. GRAHAM. SECOND BY COUNCILMAN FRANKLIN. IS THERE ANY DISCUSSION? PLEASE CAST YOUR VOTES.

COUNCIL. COMMENTS. MR. BELLER. I DON'T HAVE ANY TONIGHT, MR. MAYOR. I'D JUST LIKE TO MAKE A COMMENT ON THE THE YOUNG MUSICIANS THAT CAME AT THE FIRST FIRST OF THE MEETING.

WHAT A FINE GROUP OF YOUNG MEN. TALENTED. I'M VERY PROUD THAT THEY'RE FROM MCKINNEY. AND IF YOU CLOSE YOUR EYES, YOU MIGHT THINK YOU'RE IN NEW ORLEANS. THEY WERE THAT GOOD. AND THAT'S ALL. I HAD. JUST ONE ITEM FOR ME, MR. MAYOR. I HAD AN OPPORTUNITY WITH MR. GRIMES TO ATTEND THE FIRE BANQUET THIS LAST SATURDAY EVENING. AND IT. YOU KNOW, I WOULD THINK AS A LAYMAN THAT FIRES FIRE, RIGHT? YOU FIGHT THE FIRE, BUT THE LEVEL OF COMPETITIVENESS AND INNOVATION AND THE GRIND THAT THAT GROUP HAS IS AMAZING. AND THEY'VE DONE SO MUCH GOOD FOR THE CITIZENS OF CITIZENS OF MCKINNEY. AND CHIEF DOW HAS DONE SUCH A GREAT JOB WITH THEM, WITH THE LEADERSHIP OF THAT. AND IT WAS JUST A TRUE PLEASURE. THAT'S ALL I HAVE, MR. MAYOR.

THANK YOU. COUNCILMAN JONES. JUST A COUPLE OF THINGS. I HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO GO TO THE CITY SERVICE AWARDS WITH COUNCILMAN CLOUTIER AND FRANKLIN. I'M MISSING SOMEBODY.

NO, IT WAS A GREAT I MEAN, WE HAD PEOPLE THERE, SOME OF OUR EMPLOYEES THAT HAVE BEEN WORKING IN THE CITY, LIKE 30 YEARS. I MOVED TO MCKINNEY IN 2000. SO THERE'S PEOPLE THAT HAVE BEEN WORKING IN THE CITY LONGER, LONGER THAN I'VE BEEN IN THE CITY OVER, YOU KNOW, FOR THE 26 YEARS I'VE BEEN HERE. SO THAT WAS THAT WAS AMAZING TO SEE. AND ALSO, WE HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO TOUR THE NEW AIRPORT AND GET TO SEE ALL. IT'S A LOT BIGGER THAN THAN I EVEN PREDICTED MYSELF. YOU KNOW, IT'S SIX GATES, NOT NOT FOUR. BUT WE'RE GOING TO START WITH THE FOUR GATES. WE GOT A FULL TOUR ALL AROUND THE FACILITY, AND I CAN'T WAIT FOR IT TO OPEN.
